Become an Exhibiting Artist at the Brandon Artists Guild

Exhibit your work at the Guild gallery in downtown Brandon, participate in special exhibitions, and join a vibrant creative community!

We welcome applications in all media and are especially interested in silversmith and goldsmith jewelers, photographers, kinetic artists, and three-dimensional glass artists.

Exhibiting artists receive 60% of the retail price of work sold through the gallery. The remaining 40% supports the operation of our member-run nonprofit artists' cooperative.

As an exhibiting artist, you'll have the opportunity to:

• Show and sell your work in our downtown Brandon gallery

• Participate in special exhibitions and featured artist opportunities

• Connect with a community of 30+ Vermont artists

• Reach visitors and collectors through the Guild

As a member-run cooperative, the Guild thrives through the participation of its artists. Exhibiting members take an active role in supporting the Guild through events, committees, and other areas that match their skills and interests.

What does the jury look for?

Jurying criteria include originality, impact, clarity, craftsmanship, consistency of style and quality, presentation, and marketability. The jury panel consists of both exhibiting and supporting members of the Guild with expertise and experience across all media.

Who can apply?

• Applicants must be Vermont residents for at least six months of the year.

• All submissions must be original works and representative of the work the artist intends to exhibit and sell at the Guild. A small percentage of reproductions or limited editions may be included for consideration. Work should have been completed within the last two years.

• Manufactured items, items assembled from commercial kits, made from commercially available plans, or cast from pre-manufactured molds are not eligible. The Brandon Artists Guild reserves the right to make a final determination of commercial status.
